I'm trying to get AT&T @home cable modem service working on my system.
>From what I have gathered, it seems as though it should be as easy as
installing a dhcp client package, and let dhcp get everything working for
me.
I installed Debian's dhcp-client package. It runs, looks as though it's
trying to get an IP address but fails.
Also, I have the IP I've been assigned, so I don't think I really *need*
dhcp, but I forgot to ask the tech the address of the nameserver(s).
Anyway, here is the output of dhcp-client; eth0 is the card that is
plugged into the cable modem:

No DHCPOFFERS received.
No working leases in persistent database - sleeping.
Any ideas?
Thanks,

"I was just reading the interview with Korn in _Guitar_World_, and one of
the guitarists said they don't play guitar solos because they've been
done. Well, I guess that's true if you stick with what's been done.
But you have to look beyond that; there's a lot more left to say on the
guitar." -- Warren Haynes of Gov't Mule
